LOL, telling, isn't it - stolen christian holiday comes around and somebody locks the door on the books.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Probably has more to do with urban burn laws than any improvement upon how books are viewed at this point Min. It's not like we don't see a good ole timey book burning now and again.

Which reminds me....caught ten minutes of The Ten Commandments last night.

Has to be one of the worst acted movies in history. Heston and Brynner had enough wood in their performance to be porn stars.

So let it be written.... So let it be done!

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

They always ramp that biblical shit up at these times of year don't they. I don't get it, clearly - by the holiday we're celebrating - we're uninterested. If they wanna roll with easter...I'm gonna suggest they go with actual porn stars. Or at least a nice round girl with big hips and rosy cheeks, sitting in a park eating, inviting and warm, possibly pregnant or about to become so. Throw some flowers and bunnies in there too....if you have to.
